I have one for my EGC and used it when I made a trip out to Sturgis a couple of years back and it worked very well. The Harley ones are tight fitting and have a nice fleece type material on the back and will not scratch your paint. I was sceptical when I first got it but when I pulled it off after the trip the paint underneath was as smooth as a baby's behind. For long trips I will definitely use it. Wish I had something for my nice chrome forks, they really got sand blasted going out there. I can imagine what the front fairing (catch all) would have looked liked.
I had one on my Ultra for four months without taking it off. When I did, there were no scratches or other marks on the fairing. I am leaving it off for the winter (no bugs or long trips), but will put it back on in the spring. I feel it is money well spent.
I have a bra on one of my Ultra's, I love it, I use this bike typically for trips of 100 to 1000. miles each direction, the bike is 4 months old and has over 8000 miles on it, it has no scratches on the protected front end unlike my 2007, it has many as it was unprotected ... bugs scratch pebbles scratch and gouge... I will keep the bra, if anyone thinks they are for girls, I would rather have one on my bike than on a female....
Pickin one up this eve when I go by to pick up a set of the soft lowers to use while waiting on my color-matched set.
I scuffed/scratched the hell outta my last bikes tank with keys and crap and certainly don't want to do that on this denim finish. At least on clear coat finishes you can buff/wax 'em out.
